The si: ft-'oorn daughter of the French <jn nination, in Italy, the Cisalpine republic rented by the mother republic as a fU :hild, and governed with such a waver:;,, nconlillency, as is not likely or calculated •o conciliate her affection, orendc.irthe new late of things to the discontented people Revolution follows aftCT revolution, a t ,d snc arbitrary stroke is instantly fuccecd-d ay another. This young republic, W hoP> political exigence is scarcely i !xte en months old, has already in so ihort a l'pace of time experienced four convulsive {hocks and ent re changes of government. The poli tical revolution, which had been efFcfted by the French' ambassador,' TroHve, had not reached the end of two months,'when the order of things, which had then been esta blished, was again annihilated. The fame derangement of finances, which seems txt be- the charaftf riflic feature of the newly eftabliflied republics in Europe, pc r . vaded also the public concerns in Rom». Notwithstanding every kind of exertion and contributi6ns, the scarcity of money wan daily increaiing. The people, though already exhausted, must pay a tax on their lands of two per cent, to defray the ordinary expen. ditures, which amount to one million fcudi • and in addition to this, a new forced loan of three millions of livres, payable in three terms, has been imposed. By order of the French commandant, national property to the amount of three millions has been fold the money to be paid within a month, for maintaining the French troops. At th; lame time the requisitions were continued* and the remaining bilhopricks, churches and monafterics, compelled, under the name of a patriotic donation, to fuYnifli 30,000 fliirts 10,000 uniform coats, 20,000 pairs of Ihoes' and 1500 beds for the French army. In! duftry was totally annihilated, and the har bour of Ancona block«d up by the British. Still more disgusting were the murmersof the people in the Ligurian republic. A new import on fait, which was generally oppressive, and-the suppression of inonafteries an l church eftabliftmients, that had been resolved on I'erved to inrreafe the general difcontems! An infunrtf ion broke out at Lavagna, and still more violent commotions took place in Tarzana. Even at Genoa the legiflatois saw themselves exposed to the public infultt of the people, and nothing but the drifted attention to military mcafures of precaution could maintain order. In a similar Hate of dependence on the Frelich, though t'ortmain reasons somewhat less precarious, is fte Grand Duke of Flo rence placed, who has he re to to re endeavored to r.mntaid a friendly undemanding with the French rulers.- _ But a linking contrail is formed by the King <M Naples, who oppofcda noblje forti tude and an unlhaken finnnefs to the French revolutionary d -%ns. A regular army of 80.000 men is ready to art for the defence of the country, whtfa. a militia of 100,000 men is conAantly exercised 111 arms. All fi nancial meafu res were taken, requiGte tode fray the expenccs of a war ; a new bank de putation was ellablifted, a tax on the revt. nues ordained, some church goods fold, and new extraordinary resources resorted to, by which the income of the Hate has been aug mented from fix to twelve millions of duc ats, and the government enabled to make effedive operations. Gen. Mack, who was appointed captain general and commander in chief of all the Neapolitan forces, direfts the plans of defence. While these meafu res were going on, the new French ambassador, Lecombe St. Michael had his firft audience with the king whom lie a flu red in the polit elt terms of the pacific and friendly dispositi on of the French Republic, his language be ing entirely the reverie of the former arro gant style of the Pentarohs. Nevertheless, misunderstandings become daily more seri ous, and the political horizon is still inve loped in darker clouds. A rupture is mo mently looked for, mid thought to be una voidable. 1 he Italian coaftj were every where me naced with aggreflions from the Britiih; Malta as well as Minorca is blockaded, the commerce and navigation of the Mediterra nean lea is interrupted by privateers; and the French, who intended to drive the Bri tish entirely from the Italian territories and tr*>m the Mediterranean Tea, were forced to yield the empire the fca to the Ertglifh.
